Free Agents vs Draft Picks

[DaveThePanther2008]

In the past Gman tried to address every position of need via free agency giving him the option of BPA.

If you were GM, of the following positions, who would you pick up in Free Agency?

Who would you Draft (take into consideration you can't have all 1st rounders in the draft)

DE

RB

OT

S

WR

C

CB

[Snake]

I would follow Dave's guide and try to address as many as possible in FA except C. We have 3 starting Centers on this team. 

[Palmetto]

DE, Rb, CB Draft

Rush the passer,  shut down his WR,  and run down their defense

sign proven  free agent linemen and Wrs

The idea is to put WHO you want.  I thought it would be interesting to see who you would sign and who you would draft.  Actual names.

It worked well. I loved it and gave him all the credit.....then he stopped doing it and threw 3 picks at CB. 

[WOW!!]

DE, Safety,  RB, TE, and Oline in the draft..

2 Wrs and a DT in FA..

DE  Free agency.  We are developing Hall, we have a pass-rusher (Addison) and a run stuffer with below average pass rushing (Horton).  Draft not real good in Free Agency.  Sweat, by the way, is a bust waiting to happen.

RB  Draft, 3rd round.  We do not need Zeke Elliot--we need a pounder.  I think CAP needs a shot too.

OT If Moton is playing LT and will be on the pine for another year, I would rather not draft a T or sign a free agent.  Instead, I would prefer a LG.  GUARD: Draft, Round 2.  OT last pick, round 7.

S Free Safety: Draft, 1st round.  Strong Safety free agency ($3-4 m range).  Adams is too old.

WR:  Free agency: Second tier, $8m range.  Draft: 6th round

C: Draft, Round 3.   A smart player to groom behind Kalil for a year.

CB:  Draft: Round 5. Free agency

Free Agency: DE ($4m to Peppers), WR* ($7-8m for Wallace or Richardson), SS* ($3-4 M for McDouglad or Brooks), CB* ($8-9m for Breeland, for example)

Expect more cuts to free another $3-4 million

Draft: 1-FS*, 2-LG*, 3-RB, C, 5-CB, 6-WR, 7-OT, DT

Then it becomes a "My guy is better than your guy thread"

and in October a "see I told you that free agent/draft pick would be a Star/bust Thread

Areas to consider:  Are we OK at C? 

Tackle:  Do we need a T this year? (Moton)

Left Guard:  Please don't re-sign Silatolu.  I drafted a LG in the second round, but can we not find a LG on the roster or the lower end of free agency?  A T that did not work out, for example?

ain't nobody got time for that.

Address WR and Secondary in FA. We are too young at these positions. Cannot keep waiting to develop

Draft DE, LB, OL not as big needs and DE and LB would be rotational and can be brought along.

Having said that it's still BPA and if James is there for the picking in the draft, then so be it. Maybe it's why Hurney won't bust a move on a trade b/c we could be waiting for draft day. If i knew that for sure, i'd be okay. I really hate that we're missing an opportunity with Darby to solidify corners.

BTW what's Cap's cap hit if we let him go?

BTW that's Captain Munnerlyn, not ARtis Payne
